[0016]In the vending machine according to the first aspect of the present invention, a refrigeration cycle is constituted by the internal heat exchanger installed in the product accommodation chamber inside of the vending machine main body 1 formed as a heat-insulated housing, the external heat exchanger installed in a machine chamber of the vending machine main body, and the compressor. In the vending machine, the external heat exchanger and the compressor are provided on a base of the vending machine main body with an attachment base made of a steel plate interposed therebetween, the external heat exchanger is made of aluminum. The vending machine includes a pair of right and left holding members made of synthetic resin engaged with and fixed to the attachment base having accommodation units corresponding to an outer shape at both sides of a lower portion of the aluminum external heat exchanger. The pair of right and left holding members forms a gap between the aluminum external heat exch

Problems solved by technology

Therefore, in a case where the aluminum condenser is employed, the end plates made of steel plates cannot be used.
In addition, since the attachment base is also made of

Abstract

A vending machine includes a vending machine main body, an internal heat exchanger, an external heat exchanger made of aluminum, and a compressor. The vending machine further includes an attachment base made of a steel plate and disposed on the base such that the external heat exchanger and the compressor are provided on the attachment base, and a pair of right and left holding members made of synthetic resin and engaging with and fixing to the attachment base, each having an accommodation unit corresponding to an outer shape at two sides of a lower portion of the aluminum external heat exchanger. The pair of right and left holding members forms a gap between the aluminum external heat exchanger and the attachment base such that the two sides of the lower portion of the aluminum external heat exchanger are accommodated and held in the accommodation units.

Description

CROSS-REFERENCE TO RELATED APPLICATION[0001]The application claims a priority of Japanese Patent Application No. 2015-096642 filed on May 11, 2015, the disclosure of which is incorporated herein.BACKGROUND[0002]Technical Field[0003]The invention relates to a vending machine for keeping products such as a canned beverage in a heated (hot) or cooled (cold) state and selling the product, in which a refrigeration cycle is constituted by an internal heat exchanger provided inside of a vending machine main body formed as a heat-insulated housing, a condenser (external heat exchanger) provided outside of the vending machine main body, and a compressor.[0004]Related Art[0005]For example, a soft drink vending machine for selling products such as a canned beverage and a beverage in a PET bottle saves the products in a product accommodation chamber of a vending machine main body formed as a heat-insulated housing in such a state that the products are classified into cold and hot states, and th...
